Character Themes

Here are the pared-down versions of the Character Themes presented in 3 Dragon articles online (with the Neverwinter ones – or their equivalents – to be added soon). Each theme is a general background bit about your character, but it doesn’t have to be linked to your class or race. So maybe you have a half-orc fighter who is also a scholar… that’s cool. In fact, that’s probably better in my book than an eladrin wizard scholar. I like giving characters a chance to diversify a bit.

As stated elsewhere, characters are allowed to either take 1 theme at character creation, or you can get 2 rolls on the Random Feat chart for extra feats. That should even out the overall power balance of these themes.

There may also be utility power options associated with these themes, so you can choose one of the theme’s utility powers instead of your class utility power at a given level, but I don’t feel like copying all those down, so you can look those up on your own, if you so choose.
